Lightsources

Take a picture in unusual light, i.e. other than Sunlight or Flash, which can be said to be "usual" or common. Experiment with Neon or Sodium light, use Candles, Gas lanterns, Lighter LEDs, Acetylene torches or Cyalume... Do not necessarily take a picture of the light source itself; rather use it to light your objects! Your light source may be a part of the picture, of course. Set the White Balance to "Daylight" to let us see the resulting difference. PLEASE observe all the rules! There's no fun in having to upload more than once...
